Build Production Ad Management Systems

Use the `ads_get_cpc_metrics` tool to pull near real-time spend, impressions, and clicks for any active campaigns. You don't just get raw data; you get metrics filtered by specific campaign IDs. Need a full picture? The agent can also run `ads_get_item_health_report`, generating snapshots across categories like adGroup or keyword. This level of structured reporting makes it reliable for production use.

Adjusting Campaigns and Budgets

The system handles campaign lifecycle management, letting you call `ads_pause_campaign` instantly if something goes wrong. You'll also manage spending with `ads_update_daily_budget`, ensuring the right campaigns don't overspend before you manually check them. If a keyword needs boosting, use `ads_add_keywords`. This tool takes structured JSON input, letting your agent add keywords and their associated bid amounts to any Sponsored Search ad group.

MCP Server for Keyword Performance

Check performance data easily with two tools. You can list all campaigns using `ads_list_campaigns` or narrow down results immediately by campaign ID. For deep dives, `ads_get_keyword_performance` lets you focus the report on specific ad groups or campaign IDs. This structure means your agent doesn't waste time listing everything; it goes straight to the data points that matter for optimizing keyword bids and performance.
